Salman Khan Is A Very Good Friend, What More Can I Say: Iulia Vantur

Darpan News Desk IANS, 03 Dec, 2016 01:37 PM
    Iulia is back in the city and has recently hit the headlines for lending her voice to Himesh Reshammiya’s latest music album Aap Se Mausiiquii. The Romanian beauty was today present at the launch of her single titled Every Night and Day and was caught in a tell-all mood during the media interaction.
     
    She also finally broke her silence on all the link-up speculations and termed her relationship with the superstar.
     
    Answering the million dollar question about Salman and her relationship with him, Iulia told media, “He is a very good friend! What more can I say? He is a very good friend for everyone who meets him. He has such a good heart and he is welcoming to everyone. So you know what I think about him.”
     
     
    When quizzed about rumours of her marriage with Salman, Iulia said, “As I said, we are very good friends. More than that what can I say? There is a lot of respect for him. It is because of him I met India! And I love India.  Also, I want to tell you all one thing and I want to clarify - I was never married! It came in the press that I was married and I left my husband - but it’s not true!
     
    I always wanted to come here since I was a kid because I used to read so many stories about India and was very fascinated. So at the right time, I reached here. And the first feeling I had when I stepped on this land was like home. The energy, the vibe of this place was so good and so welcoming. And honestly, when I left from India, I cried. 
     
     
    I cried because I didn’t want to leave this land. But life brought me here back. So I am happy for that. There were rumours that I didn’t like India or its culture but I am telling you that’s it’s not correct. I love this place, I love the people and I am grateful to all the people I have met here.”
     
    Iulia also spoke about her passion for music and how it was instrumental in bringing her in touch with Salman and India. Salman got hooked on after listening to her sing the Romanian version of ‘Teri Meri’, the tune of which was later on used by Himesh for the film Bodyguard. Salman, later on, introduced Himesh to Iulia’s voice and the duo collaborated to cut the album, “Aap Se Hai Mausiiquii”.
